Spokeswoman Gina Cerilli emailed this update on Thursday morning: "Repairs have been made on the 30 inch transmission line on Route 993. The line is being pressurized and filled. For customers that have experienced a temporary loss of water service, service should be fully restored later this afternoon. Customers in the affected areas should continue to conserve and boil the water as previously stated until bacteriological test samples are completed."

The water line ruptured Tuesday afternoon during dynamite blasts on the Cleveland/Price property. Owner Chuck Cleaveland said their contractor has been blasting for months to clear rock and pave the way for their business expansion. Cleaveland said the company has all of the required permits to do the blasting. Police are not investigating.

"All of a sudden, the house completely shook. The windows actually shook. I felt like something had fallen and hit the roof of my house," said Cindy Oeler, who lives nearby. "I actually thought something hit the top of my roof. You just jump up and run outside. That's when I saw all the trucks coming and so forth. So, I kind of knew what happened."

The blasts are nothing new for Oeler as she has heard them several times while Cleaveland/Price was working on the expansion. She said Chuck Cleaveland personally notified her and her neighbors before the blasts began last year.

Customers must boil water for one minute before drinking it, cooking with it, washing dishes or brushing teeth. Washing machines are safe to run and customers can use the water for bathing. Dishwashers are only safe to use if the temperature of the water reaches 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

In an earlier statement Wednesday, Cerilli said customers in Wall Borough and North Versailles are being asked to conserve water to the bare essentials.
